This module implements a key-pinning mechanism to ensure that it's safe to use RSA keys as identitifers even as we migrate to Ed25519 keys. It remembers, for every Ed25519 key we've seen, what the associated Ed25519 key is. This way, if we see a different Ed25519 key with that RSA key, we'll know that there's a mismatch. We persist these entries to disk using a simple format, where each line has a base64-encoded RSA SHA1 hash, then a base64-endoded Ed25519 key. Empty lines, misformed lines, and lines beginning with a # are ignored. Lines beginning with @ are reserved for future extensions.
